So we all know Ric Flair arrived with the company along with Hogan in others on the January 4th 2010 Impact, when he emerged from the limosine.
Since then many feel Flair has been one of the highlights of TNA. Originally he was paired with champion AJ Styles and at the time many were not fans of the heel turn. Others feel that AJ Styles has vastly improved on the microphone since making the turn with Flair. We also got the treat of wheelchair Flair, but possibly an all time low at Destination X when Flair fell into the hole created by Abyss. Another possible low of Flair's career is him blading in the middle of a promo just for TNA to be "edgy."
We then saw the creation of Fortune and the feud between Flair and Lethal. The Flair/Lethal feud led to some great promos from both Flair and Lethal and could have elevated Lethal to another level, but instead the feud was seemingly forgotten and he ended up back in the X-Division. Then we got EV2 vs. Fortune which led to some more great promo work from Flair and a pretty brutal hardcore match with **** Foley. While many enjoyed the match there have been naysayers against Flair stepping into the ring. Still despite the great promos Flair has given us there have also been naysayers against him taking up time in the company and those that have a problem with him competing at his age. In the last month Flair has taken his faction Fortune and merged it with "They" to form Immortal. With Hogan out with injuries Flair has seemed to have taken his place in recent weeks alongside Eric Bischoff.
So if you had the power would you keep Ric Flair or get rid of him?
